In 2025, Gregg delivered didgeridoo sessions to each of our nine classes within our specialist school setting, and the response from students was overwhelmingly positive. His sessions were calm, rhythmic and thoughtfully paced, supporting sensory regulation and emotional wellbeing for students with a wide range of abilities and communication styles. Students engaged in ways that felt right for them — some explored the instrument through touch, some moved closer to observe, while others experienced the sound and vibrations from a distance. The combination of sound, vibration and Gregg’s gentle presence created a settled, focused environment, with every student fully immersed in the experience.
Gregg demonstrates a deep understanding of how to create safe, respectful and regulating experiences for students, making his sessions both meaningful and impactful.
​
We highly recommend Gregg’s sessions for schools and settings seeking a calming, inclusive and sensory-rich experience for their students.
